Luca Moretti

Hi, I’m Luca. I’m a bartender and cocktail writer with over 15 years of experience behind the bar.

I’ve worked with classic cocktails, spirits, citrus, bitters and simple techniques that can completely change the way a drink tastes. For me, good cocktails are not about making things complicated — they’re about balance, small details and knowing what each ingredient brings to the glass.

At Love My Drink, I share classic cocktail recipes, bartender tips and practical advice for making better drinks at home. My goal is simple: help you make cocktails that taste more polished without making the process harder.
